Today the deadline for execution of wages

Even today, Kosovo teachers expect their salaries to be executed for September, and if that does not happen, unionists have declared they will take other measures. Union Chairman Nundman Jasharaj has said this decision is revenge against the union, while stressing it will decide membership for further actions.

The Ministry of Education has proposed that it finance to consider another method of paying the teachers, who have not been paid for September, due to the strike. Under the new proposal, teachers will be paid for the hours they replace. The payment has been proposed to be accrued in October, said in the August communique.

Kosovo Institute for Justice Director Ehat Miftaraj has told Radio Kosovo that failure to execute salaries for strikers is contrary to law and is persecution against strikers. He said that if salaries are not executed for strikers, then each of them has the right to file charges in court.

“can therefore be viewed as the persecution of the government not only against union, strikers and teachers, but against a guaranteed right to the Constitution, which is related to freedom of association as well as to what the law guarantees for the strike law. With the fact that within the year of union membership is about 700 thousand euros a year, it makes it in some way impossible for the union to pay the strikers. Of course, the government cannot get out of the rule of law, suspending or executing the strikers' wages. The strikers and any teachers who are denied or denied or paid are entitled to be led to the Court and filed suit. If the court decides fair, it would compensate not only the right to pay but also the additional expenses for the lawyer and legal interest”, Miftaraj said.

Meanwhile, the chairman of the Parents' Council, Jeton Demi, told Radio Kosovo that if September's salaries for teachers are not provided, they will raise funds for them. Meanwhile, the Council has demanded that strikes in elementary education be banned by law.

Meanwhile, six deputies of the Vetevendosje Movement Parliamentary Group, including two from the “Gux” list, have voiced themselves against the government's decision, for failing to execute salaries for the striking teachers. The Kosovo Communist Association, meanwhile, has indicated that all municipalities have submitted pay lists before September 10th.
